Cancervive Challenge Bike-a-thon
Calgary Race City Speedway
It’s coming! The 2007 Cancervive Challenge bike-a-thon is coming soon. Are you ready to take up the challenge? This year’s event takes place at Race City Speedway and includes a wide range of cycling events for all ages and abilities. Bring your friends and family and enjoy the controlled environment of the Race City Speedway Track or take a scenic tour on our 50 or 100km road riding routes that start and finish at Race City. When the riding is done you will be richly rewarded with a BBQ in our festival atmosphere celebrating all of your hard work in raising funds and completing your event. The day will end with a high powered, adrenaline filled and heart stopping motorcycle race demonstration.
